Basically a summarised and unindexed rehash of what Wilber wrote in Transformations of Consciousness and Sex, Ecology and Spirituality. It's presented in a silly Ken-interviews-himself format but is still a very good read. I particularly liked the report of William James' and Bertrand Russell's exchange on nondualism, which never had time to gather the momentum it deserved. (  ) stancarey | Jul 30, 2009 |  Wilber is a contemporary philosopher who specializes in integrating important truths from both Eastern and Western cultures. This is the most accessible of his many books, explaining the evolution of human ideas from matter to life to mind. This is a challenging book, but well worth the effort. ( ) co_coyote | Mar 24, 2008 | Total bilge 1  |  joeboe | Sep 15, 2007 | I loved this book. Rebellious against religion for decades, yet attracted to spirit, I was delighted to find a synthesis of ancient thought and more modern ideas. I grant the book is a dry read,perhaps, but I fell in love with Ken Wilber. (  ) maggie1944 | Jun 15, 2007 | I'll be getting back to this book in about twenty years. Great stuff, albeit taken with a grain of salt and well digested, and perhaps best not read too soon in life. I think it'll hold up as we approach the singularity, let's put it that way. kencf0618 | Sep 30, 2005 |  no reviews | add a review
